4 Benefits of a Front Yard Fence

Fencing is a powerful way to enhance the appearance of your property and increase functionality as well. Backyard fencing is a common type of home upgrade, but only about 5% of homeowners have a fence in their front yard, according to BBN Times. Let's look at a few of the benefits of scheduling a professional fence installation for your front yard.

Aesthetics

While backyard fences are often installed for privacy, pets, or children, front yard fences are primarily installed for aesthetic purposes. A front yard fence can really help to establish the property lines of your yard and create fantastic curb appeal. Front yard fences can be designed and customized to complement or match the exterior of your home.

Boundaries

If you live in an area where there is a lot of foot traffic in front of your yard, a front yard fence will help to establish a boundary. Pedestrians will know exactly where your yard starts and where they shouldn't be walking. This is very helpful if you live in a neighborhood in which dogs are often walked. After all, you don't want neighbors allowing their dogs to use your yard as their bathroom. An attractive front yard fence is a friendly way to remind people of where your property starts.

Pets/Children

If you have pets or children, they may like to play in your front yard. Adding a front yard fence allows pets and children to play outside safely even if there is a street nearby. You should note that if you will be using the fence to keep pets and children contained in the yard, you will need safety features that will help ensure that they don't pass through to the street.

Privacy

You may live in an area that doesn't provide much privacy for your property. Professional fence installation can help. Even if your home is facing a street, a front yard fence can be installed to increase the amount of privacy you have on the property. If you live in a neighborhood with a HOA, be sure to check the regulations concerning fencing before installation.
